Depression and moodiness
Hey Kim, I'm sorry to hear about this struggle you're having. My doc advised me to see a therapist before and after this surgery because it can be pretty hard on the psyche. Lots of these sites profess that depression is a problem post-operatively. You've just had a major life change as well as your body being invaded and cut up. I can't imagine it NOT messing with your mind. Please do see a professional, Kim. I take anti-depressants and have for years. You may need something to get you through this rough patch. It's hard to be healthy after this surgery if you only want to sleep and everything makes you mad. Don't let this beat you. Take all the steps you need to to stay healthy mentally and physically, and when you need our support, we're here.
very best wishes,
Kathy
